《Sway(Wattys 2015)》No way
Advertisement
Everyone stood there in complete silence, there minds still in shock and trying to process the news they've just heard.
"MATE" I shout, it came out a lot louder then expected.
How can I be Ivan's mate!, there has to be a mistake.This is has to be a joke ,is this my punishment?.
No replied to me, they all just stated blankly as us both.
"If this is a joke it's not funny" I begin to talk.
"You're his Mate Rogue" Hunter stated.
"No ,absolutely not" I say whilst shaking my head. It's impossible.
"Leave" Ivan says. Everyone looks as him with a weird expression.
"Get out now!" he shouts. With that the crowd of vampires quickly disperse, I took it as my chance to try and leave but Ivan wasn't having none of it.
"Not you" he sternly says. Right now I don't think he's stable so the last think I'm planning on doing is starting an argument or pissing him off.
Everyone leaves, leaving us two alone in this huge room.
My eyes never leave him as I watch in curiosity as he examines and process the previous events.
He looks at his hands then up his arms. He takes a step towards me and I take a smaller one back.
"You did this to me" he says ,still looking at his hands.
"Don't blame me ,I'm just as confused as every other person is, you're the one that caused the chaos not me ....for once"
"I'm stronger, I have my powers"
"Well in that a case a simple thank you would suffice" I gloat, feeling chuffed about what I had just done.
"How could I off missed it, all the signs,i knew it I just didn't want to believe it" he begins to talk to himself as he paces up and and down in an aggravated state.

"Errr am I missing something?" I ask
"The forest" he replies
The forest ? Then I remember when I cut my hand and his fangs came out.
"And You didn't tell me"
"I didn't exactly want it to be true" he replied
"Wow,well that felt nice" I snapped back at his hurtful and unnecessary remark.
"What now?" I ask.
"What do you mean what now we're mates" he replies.
"Can't we just turn it off" It slipped out of my mouth before I could stop it .
"Oh my god, you're so dumb ,of course we fucking can't" he said angrily.
"Well I'm sorry for having questions, so we're mates , I guarantee it will only last about a month, we will probably kiss a few times ,argue and them I'll stomp off back to my room ,blah blah blah. It will all blow over" I say trying to convince myself as well as him.
"Do you even know what a mate is?" his annoyance clearly growing.
"Yeah of course I'm not stupid" I say lying through my teeth.
"Please go on" he said knowing full well I didn't have a clue what I was talking about.
"Do you know what a mate is?" I quickly respond.
"Yeah of course I'm not stupid" he repeats my words in a mocking tone .
I roll my eyes and sigh out of aggravation.
"A mate is someone you can't live without and is one of the main purposes in a vampires life, they live and die for that one person. They start a life together, first a home then marriage, children shortly follow, then in some cases the turning happens, mates are in love with each other."
"All of that's going to happen to me!" I shout. I can feel the walls closing in on me and I begin to panic and sweat.

"Well technically yes, the kids and Marriage will only happen when you're ready of course. And I'll turn you when the times right" he continues.
"Turn me?, like into a vampire!"
"It's gonna be pretty hard to spend 'Eternity' together of you're a human" he snaps
"I don think so!"
"That's doesn't matter right now, believe it or not we're going to be in love" he bluntly states.
"So you mean I'm gonna love you and you're gonna love me?" This is crazy, I can't believe this is happening. Ivan isn't my mate, I don't want to be one of them ,don't I get a choice.
"Tell me about it, normally mates actually have to like each other"
"I like you" the words slip out my mouth.
"Because that wasn't obvious, but I talking about me" he says.
"I didn't mean it like that, i mean as a person" I honestly added
"Yeah....you're not fooling anyone"
"Oh very funny, I can't stop laughing" I sarcastically say.
He looked at me a fed up expression, he seems to be taking this a lot easier then me.
Since this situation couldn't get much worse I decided to ask him a question.
"So am I still in trouble for leaving the mansion?" I quickly rush the words hoping to confuse him.
"No, it's fine" he calmly replies.
"Are you serious!" I happily ask
"No" he bluntly replies.
"And the others?" I ask
"Them two"
Today has been the worst day of my life , I need to be alone right now to try and process everything.
I knew full well everyone in the mansion knew that I was his mate, meaning the girls knew. So I doubt I'm liked very much at the moment, so I think going to sleep and being alone is out of the question.
"I need to lay down, I'm going" I say whilst rubbing my temples.
"Where?" Ivan asks
"To my room ,duh"
"I don't think so"
"Huh?"
"You're staying with me now, so I can keep an eye on you" he replies
"No I'm not" I snap
"Aww you think you have a choice"
"Where am I supposed to sleep?" I question
"With me" as soon as the words left his mouth, my heart raced and my cheeks became hot. He clearly knew I was getting uncomfortable because a smirk grew on on his face.
"No"
"I'm good at cuddles" he replies
Ew cuddles? That doesn't sound right at all, he's a killing machine not a fluffy teddy.
I'm getting more embarrassed by the second, I quickly turn round to hide my face.
"But I'm an expert when it comes to sex, trust me baby you'll grow out of your shyness and you'll be putty in my hands , all you have to do is give me the go and it's on" he taunts.
I quickly walk away, heading back to my room. I can hear him laughing to himself. He's shortly walking by my side.
"What are you doing?" I ask
"Helping you with your stuff"
I slow down my pace walking behind him. I was still embarrassed about what happened.

Homecoming | A Chronicles of Ascension Story
When Jethen was captured by slavers, his childhood was torn from him and left shattered half a world away. When he finds himself back home decades later, by methods he does not fully understand, he finds that the life he has lived has changed him far more than he knew. In a home he no longer knows. Places and people at the same time familiar and foreign, he must decide - stay and help with his parent's business, or return to the land that remade him and the family he made there. --------- Homecoming started as just a short story to break an episode of writers block. It has since morphed well beyond that into a novel in it's own right, and may well end up with a sequel. The writing of Homecoming became a bit of a self induced challenge to improve my initial, first brush, writing quality. Each chapter was written raw, given a once over read and edit, and then posted. In this way I am forcing myself to write better from the start. I do hope you enjoy the story and will leave a comment or review, and if you see an issue, feel free to let me know as well. I know it is not nearly perfect, and it will get a full and proper edit once I am done. Never hurts to fix things along the way though. As an additional note. The story has undergone a structural rework and has been reposted in an updated structure and sequence of chapters. If you have read this story already, I invite you to do so again in this new structure.

Apostasy - The Lost History of Goge Vandire (A Warhammer 40,000 fan fiction)
DISCLAIMER: The characters in this story are inspired by the background of the Warhammer 40,000 intellectual property that belongs to Games Workshop Ltd. This is fan fiction, and no challenge to their ownership rights is intended. Goge Vandire is a name written in to the annals of Imperial history in blood. Often literally. No single mortal has commanded authority on the scale at which he exercised it at his height. His name is as synonymous with unspeakable evil as that of the Warmaster, Horus himself. And yet he was just a man. Where did such a man come from? What drove him to the steps he took to secure power to himself and, once he had it, how did he come to misuse it so grievously? I have scoured the records - many of them once thought lost or placed under the unbreakable seal of the Inquisition - to uncover his forgotten story, piecing together his childhood, his apprenticeship, his rise to power and his descent into madness and death. It is not the story you might expect...
